Finite element stress analysis of idealized composite damage zones
This study was concerned with linear and nonlinear stress and failure analysis of an idealized damage zone in a laminated composite under compressive loading. The following conclusions can be made from results of the analysis. 1. A boundary layer exists around the damage zone; it is similar to the...
